Frankly Lost - The Mouse and I Lyrics

Another winter morning
And I wake up feelin' old
I know I'm not as old as some
I know that's what I'm told
But I still feel the rust is creepin' in
As a mouse creeps through a hole
And pisses in the ceiling of my
Old world childhood home

So after gettin' tired
Of mouse piss in my nose
I dig up an old pair of traps
The kind with metal bones
I can't keep buying bread to fill
A little mouse's soul
One more, Mark
And I feel I'm getting old

A mouse is free, a mouse is free
To go and piss wherever they may please
They did it in my ceiling
And left droppings like falling leaves

But how can I abide that rodent?
Eating here for free?
Eating all the food
That I bought for me

I woke up the next morning
And checked on what I set
I didn't expect to find a mouse
But instead I found one dead
And I just stood and stared in disbelief
I didn't think it'd be
Well, just that easy

I thought about the times that I've
Eaten in life for free
And I thought about the kindest folks
The ones that would feed me
And all the change I got from busking
Dirty pennies in the street
And realized that mouse is me...

And yeah it's me, that mouse is me
And I will piss wherever I may please
If you're leaving traps for me
To bring me to my knees

Well you have got the food inside
And you have got the heat
So I will live inside your house's walls
And piss wherever I please
And I won't be the only one
There's millions just like me
And we will not be pushed away
We won't accept defeat
Because the cold kills more than you can
And the world is waking up

Millions of people are being kind
And telling you to (shut the f*ck up)
We'll burrow through your house's walls
And curl up in the heat

And I will piss wherever I may please
And I will piss wherever I may please
It'll start with piss but it'll bring you to your knees
I wish I could tell that mouse that
I'm sorry
